Sidney Rice retires at age 27.

Makes sense really. Seattle had Baldwin, Harvin, and Kearse ahead of him on the depth chart plus they drafted two WRs (Paul Richardson and Kevin Norwood) who would have figured to be locks for the team. That would have left Rice fighting for a possible 6th WR spot that probably would have been better served going to somebody who could contribute on special teams, like Ricardo Lockette.

He still made a good amount of money in his career and got a ring. His body keeps betraying him so probably best to hang 'em up now.
